Estradiol Alters Nitric Oxide Production in the Mouse Aorta Through the -, but not -, Estrogen Receptor
Although estradiol (E2) has been recognized to exert several vasculoprotective effects in several species, its effects in mouse vasomotion are unknown, and consequently, so is the estrogen receptor subtype mediating these effects. We investigated the effect of E2 (80 g/kg/day for 15 days) on NO production in the thoracic aorta of ovariectomized C57Bl/6 mice compared with those given placebo. E2...
متن کاملSuppression of the inflammatory response in experimental arthritis is mediated via estrogen receptor α but not estrogen receptor β
INTRODUCTION The immune modulatory role of estrogens in inflammation is complex. Both pro- and anti-inflammatory effects of estrogens have been described. Estrogens bind both estrogen receptor (ER)alpha and beta. The contribution of ERalpha and ERbeta to ER-mediated immune modulation was studied in delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) and in experimental arthritis METHODS ER-mediated suppressi...
متن کاملEstrogen Accelerates Cell Proliferation through Estrogen Receptor α during Rat Liver Regeneration after Partial Hepatectomy
Although estrogen is implicated in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation in many organs, the exact mechanism for liver regeneration is not completely understood. We investigated the effect of estrogen on liver regeneration in male and female Wistar rats after 70% partial hepatectomy (PHx) and performed immunohistochemistry, western blotting and Southwestern histochemistry. 17β-estra...
متن کاملRat Uterine Oxytocin Receptor and Estrogen Receptor α and β mRNA Levels are Regulated by Estrogen Through Multiple Estrogen Receptors
Estrogen action is mediated through several types of receptors (ERs), such as ERα, ERβ and putative membrane ERs. Oxytocin receptor (OTR) and ER expression levels in the rat uterus are regulated by estrogen; however, which types of ERs are involved has not been elucidated. This study examined OTR, ERα and ERβ levels in ovariectomized rats treated with 17β-estradiol (E2), an ERα agonist (PPT), a...
متن کاملEstrogen Induces Metastatic Potential of Papillary Thyroid Cancer Cells through Estrogen Receptor α and β
Estradiol (E2) promotes metastatic propensity. However, the detailed mechanism remains largely unknown. E-cadherin, vimentin, and MMP-9 play a dominant role in the metastatic process. We aimed to investigate the effects of E2 on metastatic potential of PTC cell line BCPAP and on E-cadherin, vimentin, and MMP-9 protein expression. PTC cell line BCPAP was evaluated for the presence of estrogen re...
